Teradata today announced a partnership with enterprise Hadoop vendor Cloudera marked by the optimization of the integration between Teradata’s integrated data warehouse and Cloudera’s enterprise data hub. The collaboration between Teradata and Cloudera streamlines access to multiple data sources by means of the Teradata Unified Data Architecture (UDA). As a result of the integration, the Teradata Unified Data Architecture can access data from the Cloudera enterprise data hub by way of a unified Big Data infrastructure that has the capacity to perform data operations and analytics on massive, heterogeneous datasets featuring structured and unstructured data. As part of today’s announcement, Teradata also revealed details of Cloudera-certified connectors that can integrate with Apache Hadoop. Other components of the UDA that interface with Cloudera’s enterprise data hub include the Teradata QueryGrid, which allows users to pose analytical questions of data in both Teradata’s integrated data warehouse and the Cloudera enterprise data hub, in addition to the Teradata Loom, which enables tracking, exploration, cleansing and transformation of Hadoop files. Today’s announcement of the integration between Teradata’s integrated data warehouse and Cloudera’s enterprise data hub signals an important development in the Big Data space insofar because the alignment of the product roadmaps of the two vendors promises to position Teradata strongly via-a-via the development of Big data analytics and processing functionality. On Cloudera’s side, the partnership renders its enterprise data hub even more compatible with one of the industry’s most respected Big Data analytic platforms and prefigures the inking of even more partnerships between Hadoop and Big Data management vendors as a means of continuing to foster deeper hardware and software integration in the Hadoop management space.
